certain volleyball shoes are good. i see quite a few advanced players wearing mizuno wave spike 9s and also asics gel-domain. i personally have spike 9s, gel-domains, and yonex shb 100mx. you can actually feel the performance difference between them. the yonex give the best mobility, followed by the asics, then the mizunos. they are all good shoes. really depends on your availabilty and price range.

I chose Asics over yonex, and the asics costed more as well. They were 140 while the shb were 110. I play both so it doesn't matter to me. However, a badminton is designed for badminton. The intensity of lunging back and forth is greater than that of volleyball. Point im saying is it comes down further than the court use. I play on highschool gym courts where both volleyball and badminton is played and they are currently lasting 3 months.

Looking past durability, volleyball shoes give alot of heel support for jumping. I would personally stick within yonex. Just go and try them on for yourself.

BTW its not about the shoes i went to a tournement and EVERYBODy was wearing yonex. LOL i felt like an outcast but i still went pretty far

I use volleyball shoes. I just noticed they dont last as long as a "badminton" shoe. But with good care it should. I bought the gel domains and they are great. Good heel support for the keen jump smasher. I just wanted to get out of the Yonex pool.
